Hi,

I just tried with 3.12.0-031200-generic and although I don't get the
dmesg errors, it doesn't detect the Ethernet cable or does DHCP client
work. So, the evidence suggests this isn't entirely fixed upstream yet.

uname -a: Linux flibble 3.12.0-031200-generic #201311071835 SMP Thu Nov
7 23:36:07 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Here are the relevant bits of dmesg from the 3.12 kernel:

[    0.760049] r8169 Gigabit Ethernet driver 2.3LK-NAPI loaded
[    0.760074] pci 0000:00:06.0: setting latency timer to 64
[    0.760321] ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [APC3] enabled at IRQ 18
[    0.760357] r8169 0000:01:0a.0 (unregistered net_device): not PCI Express
[    0.760645] r8169 0000:01:0a.0 eth0: RTL8169sb/8110sb at 0xffffc90000c72000, 
00:21:27:c9:5f:cf, XID 10000000 IRQ 18
[    0.760648] r8169 0000:01:0a.0 eth0: jumbo features [frames: 7152 bytes, tx 
checksumming: ok]
[   11.032543] r8169 0000:01:0a.0 eth0: link down
[   11.032586] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready

The link doesn't go up with the cable plugged in and I can confirm the
connection is just fine because it works on the motherboard slot (eth1)
still. There are no 'rtl_phyar_cond == 0' warnings any more though.
